Rosalía Arteaga Serrano

Rosalía Arteaga Serrano is an Ecuadorian politician who served as the 39th president of Ecuador for two days in 1997 from 9 to 11 February. She previously served as the 40th vice president under President Abdalá Bucaram from 1996 until his removal from office 1997; when the vagueness of the constitution left uncertainty as to the vice president or the head of congress becoming president, Arteaga was sworn in, but was peacefully replaced two days later by congressional leader Fabián Alarcón. She continued as vice president under Alarcón until March 1998. She is the country's first ever female head of state.
